Link to issue number:

None, Related to #9762 and #9796

Summary of the issue:

The build of Py2exe that we were using up to now had a bug which caused signature of Python's dll to be corrupted effectively making it impossible to sign .appx packages. This problem has been worked around in #9796. Since we're updating to a later version of Py2exe without this bug it makes sense to remove our workaround.

Description of how this pull request fixes the issue:

The code from #9796 has been removed.

Testing strategy:

Created .appx package with a certificate ensured that signing process succeeded.

Known issues with pull request:

This should be tested on AppVeyor with a try branch just to make sure.

Change log entry:

None needed this affects build system.
